Thinking time

Mehr zum Buch

Most of the contributors are Swiss--from the old stomping ground of Jean Piaget, whose thinking haunts the collection. Others are French German, and even North American. From the perspectives of psychology, sociology, language, and other social sciences, they review current research into time, particularly the relationships between time and awareness. They cover internal time; memory in time; logic, language, and time; developmental time; time for learning; and the pluri-temporality of humans and their artifacts. There is no index.
